I Want a Lifetime with You novel Chapter 467

Fu Ling became downhearted all of a sudden. She knew well that Bai was very young and he was at an age that he needed to learn by coming into contact with the outside world. Children his age were all studying in school but Bai had to spend almost all his time in the hospital.

Fu Ling turned away to avoid seeing the interaction between Bai and Su Shaoqing. She was particularly reluctant to look at Bai’s eyes.

Over the past few years, Fu Ling thought that so long as she was good to Bai, Bai would be contented. However, Fu Ling had overlooked the fact that a child was always eager for a family and would always yearn to be loved.

I should never be the only member of Bai’s family. It was all because of my selfishness that things turned out this way.

“Uncle, why isn’t Mommy eating?” Su Shaoqing reached out to wipe the corner of Bai’s mouth as he was feeding Bai.

Bai gave Su Shaoqing an innocent look and turned to Fu Ling. “Mommy, why are you crying!”

“Oh, no, I’m not crying. It’s just something in my eyes!” Fu Ling quickly wiped away her tears and walked over to them. “It’s Mommy’s fault; Mommy shouldn’t be picky. Now Mommy feels like having some of these, can I eat with Bai?”

“Okey-dokey!” Bai clapped his hands and pointed to his bedside. “Mommy, why don’t you sit here and let uncle feed you as well? One spoonful for Mommy and another spoonful for Bai!”

The angelic look on Bai made it difficult for anyone to refuse him, but looking at Su Shaoqing made Fu Ling blushed instantly. “It’s okay, Mommy can eat on my own. Just let uncle feed you, alright?”

Of course, Fu Ling didn’t want Su Shaoqing to feed her. It’s not like I’m disabled! Furthermore, she had decided to stay away from Su Shaoqing. If it were not for Bai, she would never have allowed Su Shaoqing to be here.

Su Shaoqing turned to look at Fu Ling and for some reason, he wasn’t against Bai’s babbles just then. A picture formed in his mind where he was feeding Fu Ling.

The unrevealed emotion within his eyes became even stronger. “Here you go, eat!”

Despite that, Fu Ling turned away. Su Shaoqing’s eyes grew dim as he saw that and when he was about to draw his hand back, Bai pouted sadly and asked, “Is it because Bai bit the spoon and Mommy feels it is dirty?”

“No!”

Hearing Bai’s childlike and tender voice, Fu Ling waved her hand quickly. “Mommy doesn’t think so!”

“Then why doesn’t Mommy eat!” Bai glanced at Fu Ling with his doe-like eyes.

Fu Ling’s heart softened completely and not a word of refusal could she bear to let out. “Mommy doesn’t think Bai is dirty, it’s just Mommy feels… feels…” How should I put this?

“Mommy doesn’t want to be fed by uncle!” Su Shaoqing replied softly. “It’s alright, Bai eats then!”

“I don’t want to. If Mommy doesn’t eat, then Bai also doesn’t want to eat anymore!” Bai pouted. Tears started welling up in his eyes as though they would trickle down any second.

Fu Ling’s heart started aching so she hurriedly lowered her head and grabbed Su Shaoqing’s hand, taking in a mouthful. “See? Mommy loves Bai the most, how could Mommy ever feel Bai is dirty and dislike Bai, right?”

Chewing the food, Fu Ling was still holding Su Shaoqing’s hand. “Bai, see, Mommy has eaten.”

Su Shaoqing lowered his head and looked at his hand which was held by Fu Ling. At that moment, Su Shaoqing could feel his heart racing. He was astonished. He had never felt that way before.

Fu Ling must have felt it as well so she quickly let go of his hand. “Mommy doesn’t eat with Bai because Mommy is an adult now and an adult should eat on her own and can’t let someone else feed her. Moreover, Bai is so young and still growing, how could Mommy eat your food? Mommy will take her own food, alright?”

Fu Ling served a bowl of rice for herself and sat next to Bai, taking a spoonful for herself and feeding Bai alternately.

Bai took a spoonful from Su Shaoqing and then from Fu Ling. His eyes were brimming with joy and he clapped his hands, declaring, “Bai is the happiest baby in the world.”

“Really? Why?” Su Shaoqing smiled lightly and fed Bai another mouthful of food. “Eat more vegetables.”

With his mouth still full of food, Bai continued clapping his hands. “Because Bai not only has Mommy now, but Bai also has Daddy!”

Fu Ling’s hand which was holding the chopsticks halted, so was Su Shaoqing’s. He was dumbfounded and looked at Fu Ling with a hopeful glint in his eyes.

Fu Ling swallowed the food with some difficulty. “Bai, don’t say something like that in the future. Mommy is not in that sort of relationship with uncle and Mommy will not get married in the future as well. Do you hear me? You have a Daddy. It’s just that he’s busy now, next time…”

“But I’ve never met him! He must be very bad and doesn’t like Mommy and Bai. Bai likes uncle!” With that, Bai flipped the blanket aside and reached out to Su Shaoqing, holding onto his neck. “Uncle, is it okay if you like Bai and Mommy?”

A fervent gleam appeared in Su Shaoqing’s eyes. His deep-set eyes fell on Fu Ling, making it untenable for Fu Ling to avoid his eyes. Su Shaoqing reached out to wipe the rice on the corner of Bai’s mouth. “Sure!”

“Yay! That’s good!” Bai clapped his hands. “Then Mommy must be with uncle and get married, and then give birth to a lovely little sister for Bai.
